New Haven was the first planned city in the United States, and thus, it has an incredible array of buildings from every point in time from American history.

Author Colin M. Caplan is a native of New Haven and an active member of the local architecture and preservation community. He founded Magrisso Forte, a design-based consulting firm dedicated to fostering awareness of New Haven's cultural resources.
